Hundreds of thousands of animals and some people have died in East Africa due to a severe drought over the past three years. Pastoralists who rely on their livestock as their primary source of income and food have been hardest hit, traveling long distances in search of water and grazing land for their animals. Without rains expected by September, more people may perish from lack of food and water-borne illness. The situation requires increased emergency aid for food, water, and medical relief for the millions of vulnerable people across the region.

Climate change impacts on agricultural sector in tanzania
A short presentation concerning with the issue of climate change impacts on agricultural sector in Tanzania
(Un)usable Security
Ever tried to send an encrypted email? Who knows what all this "certificate warnings" in Firefox/Chrome are about? Do you know when your WiFi is secure, and when not?
Security and usability are two parameters which are often played out against each other when it comes to designing and developing software. In my opinion that should not be the case.
Securing the “Weakest Link”
Security professionals often call people “the weakest link.” We claim that they'll always make mistakes, however hard we try, and throw up our hands. But the simple truth is that we can help people do well at a wide variety of security tasks, and it’s easy to get started. Building on work in usable security and threat modeling, this session will give you actionable, proven ways to secure people.
(Source: RSA USA 2016-San Francisco)
Observer-Resistant Password Systems: How hard to make them both usable and se...
This presentation is for a talk given at a half-day workshop on Human Factors in Cyber Security, organised at University of Surrey, on 16th March 2016. Below is the abstract advertised for the event.
Observer-resistant password systems (ORPSs, also known as human authentication against observers or leakage-resilient password systems) have been studied since the early 1990s in both cryptography and computer security contexts, but until today a both secure and usable ORPS remains an open question to the research community. The concept of ORPS can be used to cover a large family of attacks against password-based human authentication systems such as shoulder surfers, hidden cameras, man-in-the-middle, keyloggers and malware. A key assumption of ORPS is that human users must respond to authentication challenges without using any computational devices. In other words, the threat model behind ORPSs assumes that other than the human user's brain, nothing is trusted. The main security requirement is to avoid disclosure of the shared secret between the human user and the verifier (i.e., password) even after a practically large number of authentication sessions observed by an untrusted party.
According to Yan et al.'s NDSS 2012 paper which reviews research efforts on this topic for over two decades, it has been clear that no existing systems meet both security and usability requirements although many meet one well. In this talk, the speaker will introduce his research on ORPSs since the early 2000s, highlighting a number of key findings such as human behavioural based timing attack reported at SOUPS 2011 and some theoretical work reported at NDSS 2013 and IEEETIFS 2015. He will contextualise some part of his talk using a particular design of ORPS called Foxtail, one of those ORPSs whose implementations were shown to have a relatively better balance between security and usability. Known rules about designing ORPSs and future research directions will also be discussed.

Cannabis Science & Policy Summit - Day 2 - de Kort
The document summarizes the origins and development of Dutch cannabis policy from the 1970s to the present. Key events included the recommendations of committees in the late 1960s and early 1970s to decriminalize cannabis, the introduction of heroin in 1972 which led to stricter drug laws, and the rise of coffee shops in the 1970s-1980s which established a system of toleration for soft drugs like cannabis. The coffee shop system developed pragmatically rather than through a formal policy and expectations of legalization were not met. Over time coffee shops faced some regulation to address issues like advertising, hard drugs, nuisances, and minors.
Cannabis Science & Policy Summit - Day 2 - Jacobson
This document discusses the future of medical cannabis. It outlines a spectrum of cannabis use from medical to therapeutic/wellness to recreational. While some conditions like cancer pain, nausea, and epilepsy have seen medical cannabis legalized, mainstream medicine does not recognize it as a legitimate treatment due to a lack of chemical definition and clinical research. More research is needed to establish safe and effective dosing as well as drug interactions before medical cannabis can be fully accepted. The current system also fails patients in terms of accessibility, insurance coverage, and appropriate medical supervision.
Cannabis Science & Policy Summit - Day 1 - Jelsma
This document discusses cannabis regulation and the UN drug control treaties. It notes that the 1961 Single Convention placed cannabis in Schedule I and IV, requiring abolition of traditional and medical uses. However, some countries were allowed transitional reservations for traditional use. The document questions whether the WHO ever properly reviewed cannabis or recommended its scheduling. It discusses options for reforming the UN drug treaties to allow more flexibility for countries to design their own cannabis policies.

Cannabis Science & Policy Summit - Day 1 - Williams
The document summarizes state medical marijuana programs in the United States. It finds that there is great variation among state programs, with an average score of 1.96 out of 7 on factors reflecting a medical model. Programs enacted more recently through state legislatures in Northeastern and Midwestern states (medicalized programs) tend to be more highly regulated compared to earlier voter initiative programs in Western states (non-medical programs). Medicalized programs have fewer participants, with an average of 58 enrollments per 100,000 residents compared to over 1,000 in non-medical programs. The presentation concludes with a case study of New York's strictly regulated medical marijuana program.
Cannabis Science & Policy Summit - Day 1 - Kagan
This document discusses options for regulating recreational marijuana in California if legalized. It recommends taking a relatively tight initial regulatory approach to create a single market, building in the ability to change regulations over time based on data, and requiring extensive data collection. Key regulatory areas to focus on include cultivation and production licensing, restricting sales to adults, establishing taxes, preventing impaired driving and abuse, and designating an oversight agency. An effective regulatory system would manage the entire supply chain, limit youth access, raise revenue, and monitor public health and safety impacts ongoing.
